Algorithm For Detecting dc Series Arcs
Algorithm developed for use in automatic detection of dc series arcs in power cables, cable terminations, and junction boxes. (Sometimes detects arcs inside electrical loads.) System in which algorithm utilized is one receiving power from microprocessor-based remote power controller that includes load-current sensor. Algorithm analyzes digitized load-current readings for fluctuations characteristic of dc series arcs.
